JohanW 0 #11 July 13, 2009 From the job description: Quote .. Conditions of Employment: 1. Position requires shift work, overtime, some working at night, weekends, and holidays. You may be required to alternate or work flexible schedules in support of academic and cyclic training schedules .. 6. You may be exposed to a wide variety of environments, ranging from hot and/or humid to extreme sub-freezing temperatures .. i.e. we can send you anywhere anytime. From your profile: Quote Family is always number one. Quote Hmm, my CPOL resume is up to date. I meet ALL the quals. Matt No you don't. J/K , sounds like a dream job for the right guy or gal indeed. Seriously though, a PhD, rigger, AFFI, TI, SLI, Pro, S&TA, oh and a driver's license. Wait, and maintain the same physical standards as the military parachutist corps. They don't just want everything, they want Superman! And they're offering 60-80k? Is the crisis that bad, are the benefits that good or is 60k that much over there? My hat's off to the they pick. Johan. I am. I think. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kallend 2,108 #12 July 13, 2009 Why would anyone with a PhD and all those ratings want a job that only offers $63k?... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hckimball 0 #14 July 13, 2009 im in the army stationed in kentucky and i get almost $14,000 per year for living expenses so im sure that it would be substantially larger if they are giving this person anything like that. this may be one thing to entice someone there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
